An interview with Pàdruig Moireasdan (Aonghas, 9)

Co as a tha thu? caite bheil thu fuireach? de an aois a tha thu agus ciamar a fhuair thu bhi na d’chleasaiche? Where are you from? where do you live? how old are you and how did you become an actor in Seachd?

[Pàdruig] Tha mi a Griomsaidh, Uibhist a Tuath, tha mi fuireach ann an Griomsaidh, tha mi deich agus fhuair mi bhi nam cleasaiche ann an Seachd an deidh dhomh a bhi air m’fhaicinn air program telebhiseon comhla ri caraidean dhomh, agus an uair sin chaidh mi gu na ‘auditions’ airson a phairt aig Aonghas anns a fhilm. I’m from Grimsay, North Uist, I live in Grimsay, I am ten ( 11 on the tenth of July) and I became an actor in Seachd after being seen in a Gaelic TV program with some of my class friends and I was then auditioned for the main part of Angus in the film.An do cleas thu riamh agus an deanamh tu e a rithist? Have you ever acted before and would you do it again?

[Pàdruig] Chan eil mi air cleasadh ron a seo ach dheanain cleasadh a rithist. Bi mise a deanamh drama Gaidhlig aig Fèis tir a Mhurain on bha mi coig bliadhna de dhaois. I haven’t ever acted before but I’d definitely act again. I have been doing Gaelic drama at the ‘Feis’ summer school since I was 5 years of age.

An robh an t-eagal ort nuair a dh’fhaighnich iad dhuit an streap thu Sgùrr Dearg agus de bha e coltach ris? Were you scared when you were asked to climb Sgurr Dearg for the film and what was it like?

[Pàdruig] Rud beag aig an toiseach, ach bha e neonach a bhith cho ard ach le na casan air a talamh. A tiny bit at first but it was strange being so high with my feet on the ground.

Bheil thu nad rionnag sa bhaile agad fhein? Are you now a star in your home town?
